How to represent rational numbers on number line ?
Rational Numbers on Number Line:
- The rational numbers are the numbers which can be represented on the number line.
- Positive rational numbers lie on the right side of zero and negative rational numbers lie to the left of zero on the number line.
For example,
- In order to represent a fraction on the number line, we need to divide the line segment between two whole numbers into 'n' equal parts where n represents the denominator of the fraction.
Therefore,
- If we have to represent the fraction $\frac{1}{5}$ on the number line, we need to divide the line segment between 0 and 1 into five equal parts.
In the above figure, point A represents the fraction $\frac{1}{5}$.
